About Your Interview

No interview is the same. We tailor our approach for each guest of honor, based on the individual needs of you and your family. The interview is about you — the memories and occasions that have shaped your life, your moments of pride and joy, your wisdom, your passions, and the relationships you have fostered along the way. Our hope is to tell your story the way you want it told, focusing on what matters most to you. Our job is to help jog your memory, uncover stories waiting to be told, keep the interview on-track when needed, and curate decades of experiences into a story - your story. We know it's there, and we can’t wait to help you share it with others.

The best interviewers bring those stories to the forefront by getting you to open up your mind and heart. During the process with us, you’ll quickly get to know our interviewer, Brandon Shulleetta. He is a professional with nearly two decades of experience, patience, and a true passion for building relationships with those he is interviewing.

Preparing For Your Interview

  • Spend some time ahead of the interview date reflecting on your life and what you hope your loved ones will remember about you, as well as stories worth passing down to future generations. Consider life lessons or messages of appreciation that you want to share. We don't recommend spending time memorizing clever lines or facts. Instead, think about broad topics or time periods in your life that you’d like to focus on. We don't provide questions in advance, because we want the interview to be authentic and to flow naturally. You'll have plenty of time to speak from the heart and tell your stories. Once you’ve gathered your thoughts, please send us some notes! It will help our interviewers be prepared to build out your interview and story as thoughtfully as possible.

  • Send all photos and/or videos prior to the interview. We do not conduct interviews before collecting all photos and videos (if photos and videos are included). Gathering photos first is important because it gives you time to reflect on your life and loved ones before the interview, and it ensures that we're able to quickly edit your interview with the photos and videos after the interview.

  • There's no right or wrong answer about how you should dress for the interview. We recommend you look your best (whatever that means to you). Be comfortable, authentic, and present yourself the way you hope to be remembered.
